Both of my most recent awakenings were noteworthy enough that I'll describe them, briefly; thanks to @plebpoet for the encouragement...
- earlier today, my awakening was after a long sequence where I was leading a mountaineering expedition. I don't remember any obvious identifications of my followers, although it was a small group. For some unknown reason, the expedition had not been prepared for actual climbing, and I soon found myself scaling a strange formation that lacked exposed rock. I wanted to explain that this wasn't natural, and also not a safe route for anyone to cross without special equipment, however, dry windy weather conditions prevented me from communicating anymore with my troupe. Earlier, I recognized a strange building several times, while the trail had still been walkable; it was designed to evoke medieval crenellations, although the arches covered opaque windows of the top floor. The building seemed to observe the trail. After several attempts to make headway in the dangerous part, I returned to the walkable portion of the trail, and someone took my place at the lead; he climbed directly upwards, rather than scaling around the outcropping that prevented walking further, and I awoke before I could follow.
- before awakening yesterday, I was in the wings of some auditorium where lots of military officers were gathered for some speech. my role there wasn't clear; probably something logistical related to the venue. I was trying to give some advice to one of the people preparing to address the audience, although nobody was heeding anything I said. the speaker walked onstage and I awoke before the speech began.
These are both notable in being related to America; yesterday's was visually reminiscent of the "all hands" speech by Trump and Hegseth, and today's was accompanied by the "fact" of the trail being located in a part of America where I spent some significant time of my youth, although I didn't actually recognize any of the scenery. It's a little weird because I've not been to America in years, and my only news from it arrives by smartphone.
